With a Bachelor of Science degree in Landscape Architecture from Ohio State University, her love of landscape design carries over into life outside of work. Even though Gwen’s first ever paying job was serving as cashier at Michael’s Craft store, if she could have any job in the world and didn’t have to necessarily be concerned about income, she would love to work at Hoffmaster State Park in Michigan as a park ranger so she could walk around outside and enjoy nature.

Outside of work, something you would NOT know about Gwen from reading her resume is that she can figure skate and takes lessons on the weekends! She also enjoys doing anything outside–camping, hiking, biking and swimming. After work on a nice day you most likely would find her walking down along the lake, or on a rainy day, curled up on the couch with a book!

How would you describe your life using a movie title?
Probably Hocus Pocus, as my life is full of my fun, crazy family full of sisters!

If you could build a brand-new phone app to do something helpful for you, what would it do?
I would want it to read my mind throughout the week of all the foods I craved and create a grocery list by the end of the week!

If you found a lottery ticket that ends up winning $10 million, how do you spend it?
If I were forced to spend it, I would buy a large lake house on Lake Michigan for my extended family to enjoy together!
